Johnny Sindacco

Johnny Sindacco (died 1992) was an underboss of the Sindacco crime family of New York City. In 1992, he convinced Salvatore Leone and Marco Forelli to begin a partnership in Las Vegas centered around the Caligula's Palace casino, but his injury at the hands of the Triads led to war between the families.

Biography
Johnny Sindacco was the son of Paulie Sindacco, the don of the New York Sindacco crime family. He was an underboss in the family due to his relation to Don Sindacco, and in 1992 he came to Salvatore Leone in Las Vegas with an offer; Leone would pay him $5,000,000, and Leone would form a partnership with Sindacco and the Forelli crime family to control Caligula's Casino. Sindacco decided to throw a wrench in the progress of the rival Four Dragons Casino, run by the Mountain Cloud Boys, and he had his men print fake poker chips in order to steal money from the casino. Triad ally Carl Johnson decided to interrogate a captured Sindacco into revealing which family he belonged to, strapping him to the hood of his car and driving at high speeds. After Sindacco revealed the family which he belonged to, he was released to a hospital. The Forelli crime family tried to kill him by taking him into one of their ambulances and taking him to a quiet location, but CJ rescued him in order to prevent the mob families from warring.

Death
Sindacco was released from the hospital to his family, and he stayed at the Sindacco abattoir (slaughterhouse). Later, mob lawyer Ken Rosenberg headed to talk with him about the casino business, but a paranoid Rosenberg insisted that CJ come with him. Sindacco was happy to see Rosenberg, but he had a heart attack when he panicked at seeing CJ, and he died on the floor of the slaughterhouse. This led to a shootout between CJ and the Sindaccos in the slaughterhouse, and the slaughterhouse was destroyed by a fire.
